Been trying the different settings this first week of ownership and mostly used the ECO mode, but this morning I put it in Sport Mode and DAMN! This thing has some get up and go! Found myself cruising 80-85 mph down the interstate zipping in and out of the traffic and at no sacrifice to the fuel economy. Still holding at around 27 mpg. Real Nice!

I ordered the EB for this reason. Responsible fun! I hate lethargic vehicles.

Is there much turbo lag off the line? Or is the EB immediately responsive.

That is really encouraging to hear! I was hoping this would be the case. That engine is lively, and an 8-speed auto should allow it to stay in the power band. :)

I’m really looking forward to the 8-speed. The 10-speed in my Ranger has a very, very short 1st and just seems to so busy most of the time. Plus, I’m hoping the 8-speed will be a little smoother.

Hoping my boys at Livernois come up with a tune for Mav soon. Coming from an EB F150 with a Livernois tune, I know I will be disappointed with the stock 2.0 Mav, but a future tune would help!

Also, if you're not already, make sure you use 93 gas for top performance. EB's love octane!

I already wrote Livernois about there tuning plans and was told they will watch the market response so if you haven’t hot them up for it.
